As part of our school improvement process, we are asking families to provide input about their equity priorities for our school. Please use the link below to complete the Indicators of Educational Equity Survey by June 17, 2022. We will use your input, along with other school data, to refine our school improvement plan for the 2022-2023 school year. The survey is anonymous and available in multiple languages. If you have children at more than one school, please complete one survey per school.

• English survey

• Spanish survey

If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Anderson at derek_anderson@hcpss.org.

Did you know that the first Father’s Day was observed on June 19, 1910, the same day recognized for Juneteenth? What better way to celebrate the special man in your family than by celebrating this significant moment in our history at the Reginald F. Lewis Museum as we focus on the theme, “Education as Liberation.” Get more information HERE.

HCPSS has been fortunate to have a 1:1 device ratio for most of our students. As we come to the end of the 2021-2022 school year, we will implement the following summer 2022 Chromebook storage and use process for specified grade levels.

Infants and Toddlers

• Students and families will keep their Chromebook over the summer to continue to access their year-round services.

Preschool and PreK

• Students and families will keep their Chromebooks over the summer in order for students who attend HCPSS Summer Programs, including Extended School Year RECC, and continue to access Family Connections.

Grades K-4

• Student Chromebooks will be stored at school over the summer. Each student’s assigned Chromebook will be returned to them for use during the 2022-2023 school year.

Grade 5

• Students will keep their Chromebooks over the summer and take them to their assigned middle school at the start of the 2022-2023 school year.

Digital Education Center (DEC)

• Students will keep their Chromebooks over the summer and take them to their assigned school or DEC at the start of the 2022-2023 school year.

All students participating in a HCPSS Summer Program, including Extended School Year ESY and ESY-RECC special education, may take their Chromebooks with them for the summer so that they can be used during their program. At the conclusion of HCPSS Summer Programs, students will keep their Chromebooks for the remainder of the summer and take them to their assigned school at the start of the 2022-2023 school year.

Students not returning to HCPSS should return their Chromebook to their home school on or before the last day of school for students.

Please look for additional information from your child’s homeroom teacher regarding end of year procedures for Chromebooks.

All parents/guardians are in our system to receive HCPSS and school emails/text messages. HCPSS systems will update in early August, at which point parents will automatically receive communication from your child’s 2022-2023 school. Prior to that rollover, you will continue to receive communication from your child’s 2021-2022 school. Please do not attempt to create a new account with your child’s 2022-2023 school. Additionally, unsubscribing from any HCPSS or school messages will block you from receiving all messages from the district and your child’s school. Please do not unsubscribe!
